*************
she was always the
star i watched from my window
bright and beautiful
she left behind a
wake of stardust, like a ship’s
trail. she lost me there
but i followed, and
searched with all the light i had.
i found her, burned out,
all alone, along
the side of an empty road.
i brought her home and
gave her water, and
she said, we are broken stars
and i ran out of
light. i said, yes, you’re
a shooting star, but they shine
so bright and die so
fast
